I Try and That's What Needs to Count Today

A friend asked for advice on how get over a lost love. He said, he has tried everything including the ritual of writing the lost love's name on a piece of paper, placing the piece of paper in a film canister, filling the film canister with water and then throwing the canister in the back of his freezer. Supposedly, this symbolically rids you of the lost love. I think it symbolically freezes your love in time ensuring that it never fades away and that you always pine.

I think instead of freezing names in one's freezer it's much simpler to move very far away. The caveat with this tactic is that you can only use this technique for as many places as you can inhabit. Eventually, you'll have to give up on love or kill yourself.
